Having the right tool for the job makes the job a lot easier.
I've botched a few landings and miscalculated some hills, been stuck in some pretty shitty spots. There's techniques to getting sleds unstuck'd, day or two riding with someone who knows and can show you those techniques makes riding a lot more fun. Sometimes there's no other option but shoveling yourself out.
